During the school holidays we are inviting children to explore our theatre with a fun-filled family tour.

Discover the rarely seen backstage areas of the theatre this half-term as The REP invites you to be an audience member, set builder, prosthetics maker or even an Assistant Stage Manager!

Learn all about how our productions are brought to life on stage: discover our wondrous wigs, marvellous masks and an amazing array of costumes in our Wardrobe Department. Take one of our free quiz sheets and see how many fascinating things you can spot backstage, try your hand at being an usher by showing your family to their seats or delve into our dressing up box and take your place on stage to show off your acting skills!

The tours have been created especially for families and last approximately 90 minutes.

Please note, as this is a working theatre we cannot always guarantee access to the stages for any tour, due to the changing nature of the productions.

As of 15 January, we now charge a transaction fee of £2.50 on all payment types. This covers administration costs and postage and enables us to provide a dedicated booking service. This charge does not apply to transactions under £10, group bookings over 50 and school group bookings. We also waive this charge if you are a REP Friend.
